Why hire a medical or health writer?

 

In the world of health care, clear, accurate and evidence-based information is crucial to engage audiences and comply with regulations, such as AHPRA and TGA. This is more relevant in today’s digital world than ever.

 

My clients know that high-quality writing and editing in medical, healthcare and scientific fields requires a strong scientific background, writing expertise, a track record of executing writing projects and knowledge of relevant guidelines and regulations.

​

What does medical or health writing or editing cost?

 

​Most clients ask for a project-based fee, which means that the quote you're provided with covers a kick-off meeting and two revisions. There are no hidden extras, no extra charges. Some clients prefer an hourly or day rate, which means that the hours worked are charged for and invoiced weekly.

​

What does grant consulting, writing or editing cost?

​

If your project is grant-ready, with all the pieces in place for writing or editing the application, you can choose between a project-based fee or a day rate.

 

When we work together, I'll often identify an aspect of the project that needs changing or a new approach to take in a grant application. When this happens, what is originally intended to be an edit becomes a rewrite, possibly requiring research or stakeholder engagement. That's why using a day rate can be more suitable.
